What a shame Ian. I would like to thank you for the support you offered me when I experienced a similar thing. I got to the point of being so fed up with one particular member that I contacted the admin about 'cyber bullying'. That was an interesting conversation as they, after looking into it, claimed that it was my fault because of the private message that I had sent regarding my mental health. I have no health issues and certainly sent no private message to that effect. The private message I received from the offending member was offensive to the extreme and has been followed up by continual sniping at my posts. The same member has been quoted on this thread after posting an inappropriate reply to what I presume is one of Ian's postings. Pathetic, ignorant and pointless. One interesting point which may be water off the American members' backs is that both Ian and I are foreigners and if that is your natural reaction to our points of view and experiences God Help America. I am a admin/moderator on a European motorcycle forum and there is no way that we would entertain the sort of behaviour shown here. For a forum with an average member's age that is much, much higher than most it is as unbelievable as it is worrying.
PS I have just noticed that synchro909 is foreign too! I think that admin needs to take this seriously.
